    Sorry to hear about this, Dayerlis.

     

    Indeed, after a year of inactivity, Dropbox will delete an account, per our Terms of Service.

     

    I'm afraid that once the account is disabled, it can no longer be restored, neither can the files in it.

     

    I hope this clarifies, but let me know if you need anything else.
